Write an equation for the Lewis acid / Lewis base reaction between boron trifluoride and dimethyl sulfide [(CH3)2S]. Use the curved arrows to show the motion of the electrons and, if present, show the formal charges
Write the reaction as proton-transfer reactions. Label which reactant is the acid and which is the base, which product is the conjugate base of the original acid, and which is the conjugate acid of the original base. In addition, write Lewis structures for each reactant and product and use curved arrows to show the flow of electrons in each reaction.
Use resonance forms of the conjugate bases to explain why methanesulfonic acid (CH3SO3H,pKa = -2.6) is a much stronger acid than acetic acid (CH3COOH, pKa = 4.8).
